OBS Audio Mono Stereo Problem

[BrandonPR9]

Hello!

I'm having some audio issues with OBS. When I monitor my audio from OBS using a Scarlett interface with DT770 headphones it sounds great and is in stereo. When I listen to the stream on Facebook or Youtube the mix doesn't sound the same and it sounds like it is in mono, not stereo. Any help is appreciated!

Here is my OBS log file. https://obsproject.com/logs/AJtSB7Pve_BTAEaP

Here is my setup. I'm mixing audio in Ableton and outputting stereo audio. Sending it via dante to OBS. I'm hardware encoding my stream with a RTX 3070ti to Castr, then dispersing it to an embedded player on my website, Facebook, and Youtube.

I've done some googling and I've read that OBS treats inputs as mono by default so I'm not sure if that has anything to do with it. Also, I have reached out to the Castr support and they seem to think the issue is on the OBS side.

Here is a screenshot of my audio settings.

Okay, I have an update. We did some testing with the recording from OBS and the saved livestream on Facebook and discovered that our audio is stereo and sounds good. So now we are thinking that something is messed up with our monitoring of the audio. I analyzed our log and it says my Scarlett 2i2 sample rate is 44.1khz, but Ableton and OBS are set to 48khz. Could that be causing our problem? Could there be any other problem related to our audio monitoring that anyone can think of?
